Allows a command to have a symbol_filter controlled by the user to skip
certain functions in a backtrace. One example is to allow the user to
reduce repeating patterns like:
do_select core_sys_select sys_select
to just sys_select when dumping callchains, consuming less real estate
on the screen while still conveying the essential message - the process
is in a select call.
This option is leveraged by the upcoming timehist command.

Long options can be negated by prefixing them with 'no-'. However
options that already start with 'no-', such as '--no-inherit' result in
ugly double 'no's.
Avoid that by accepting that the removal of 'no-' also negates the long

Consequently add an option to select per-thread mmaps to support the old

Note that per-thread can be used with a workload-only (i.e. none of -p,

This patch adds perf stat support for handling event units and
scales as exported by the kernel.
The kernel can export PMU events actual unit and scaling factor
via sysfs:
$ ls -1 /sys/devices/power/events/energy-*
/sys/devices/power/events/energy-cores
/sys/devices/power/events/energy-cores.scale
/sys/devices/power/events/energy-cores.unit
/sys/devices/power/events/energy-pkg
/sys/devices/power/events/energy-pkg.scale
/sys/devices/power/events/energy-pkg.unit
$ cat /sys/devices/power/events/energy-cores.scale
2.3283064365386962890625e-10
$ cat cat /sys/devices/power/events/energy-cores.unit
Joules
This patch modifies the pmu event alias code to check
for the presence of the .unit and .scale files to load
the corresponding values. They are then used by perf stat
transparently:
# perf stat -a -e power/energy-pkg/,power/energy-cores/,cycles -I 1000 sleep 1000
# time counts unit events
1.000214717 3.07 Joules power/energy-pkg/ [100.00%]
1.000214717 0.53 Joules power/energy-cores/
1.000214717 12965028 cycles [100.00%]
2.000749289 3.01 Joules power/energy-pkg/
2.000749289 0.52 Joules power/energy-cores/
2.000749289 15817043 cycles
When the event does not have an explicit unit exported by
the kernel, nothing is printed. In csv output mode, there
will be an empty field.
Special thanks to Jiri for providing the supporting code
in the parser to trigger reading of the scale and unit files.

After processing all group descriptors or encountering an error, it
frees all descriptors. However, current logic can leak memory since it
might not traverse all descriptors.
Note that the 'i' can have different value than nr_groups when an error
occurred and it's safe to call free(desc[i].name) for every desc since
we already make it NULL when it's reused for group names.

Add an option to override that and force per-cpu mmaps.
Further comments by peterz:
So this option allows -t/-p/-u to create one buffer per cpu and attach
all the various thread/process/user tasks' their counters to that one
buffer?
As opposed to the current state where each such counter would have its
own buffer.

When introducing the PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 in:
5c5e854bc7 perf tools: Add attr->mmap2 support
A check for the number of entries parsed by sscanf was introduced that
assumed all of the 8 fields needed to be correctly parsed so that
particular /proc/pid/maps line would be considered synthesizable.
That broke anon records synthesizing, as it doesn't have the 'execname'
field.
Fix it by keeping the sscanf return check, changing it to not require
that the 'execname' variable be parsed, so that the preexisting logic
can kick in and set it to '//anon'.
This should get things like JIT profiling working again.

Pull ARM updates from Russell King:
"Included in this series are:
1. BE8 (modern big endian) changes for ARM from Ben Dooks
2. big.Little support from Nicolas Pitre and Dave Martin
3. support for LPAE systems with all system memory above 4GB
4. Perf updates from Will Deacon
5. Additional prefetching and other performance improvements from Will.
6. Neon-optimised AES implementation fro Ard.
7. A number of smaller fixes scattered around the place.
There is a rather horrid merge conflict in tools/perf - I was never
notified of the conflict because it originally occurred between Will's
tree and other stuff. Consequently I have a resolution which Will
forwarded me, which I'll forward on immediately after sending this
mail.
The other notable thing is I'm expecting some build breakage in the
crypto stuff on ARM only with Ard's AES patches. These were merged
into a stable git branch which others had already pulled, so there's
little I can do about this. The problem is caused because these
patches have a dependency on some code in the crypto git tree - I
tried requesting a branch I can pull to resolve these, and all I got
each time from the crypto people was "we'll revert our patches then"
which would only make things worse since I still don't have the
dependent patches. I've no idea what's going on there or how to
resolve that, and since I can't split these patches from the rest of
this pull request, I'm rather stuck with pushing this as-is or
reverting Ard's patches.
Since it should "come out in the wash" I've left them in - the only
build problems they seem to cause at the moment are with randconfigs,
and since it's a new feature anyway. However, if by -rc1 the
dependencies aren't in, I think it'd be best to revert Ard's patches"
I resolved the perf conflict roughly as per the patch sent by Russell,
but there may be some differences. Any errors are likely mine. Let's
see how the crypto issues work out..

To be more user friendly perf should automatically round this up to the
next power of 2.

$ perf record -m 3 -a -- sleep 1
--mmap_pages/-m value must be a power of two.sleep: Terminated
With patch:
$ perf record -m 3 -a -- sleep 1
rounding mmap pages size to 16384 (4 pages)
...

When perf_event_attr.mmap_data is set the kernel will generate
PERF_RECORD_MMAP events when non-exec (data, SysV mem) mmaps are
created, so we need to synthesize from /proc/pid/maps for existing
threads, as we do for exec mmaps.
Right now just 'perf record' does it, but any other tool that uses
perf_event__synthesize_thread(s|map) can request it.

Most uses of the evsel constructor are followed by a call to
perf_evlist__add with an idex of evlist->nr_entries, so make rename
the current constructor to perf_evsel__new_idx and remove the need
for passing the constructor for the common case.
We still need the new_idx variant because the way groups are handled,
with evsel->nr_members holding the number of entries in an evlist,
partitioning the evlist into sublists inside a single linked list.
This asks for a clarifying refactoring, but for now simplify the non
parser cases, so that tool writers don't have to bother with evsel idx
setting.

There is no point in sort.h including itself.
The include was added when the file was created, in commit "perf tools:
Create util/sort.and use it" (dd68ada2d) and added a include to "sort.h"
in lot of files (all the files that started using the file). It was
probably added by mistake on sort.h too.

When building perf out of tree:
$ make perf-tar-src-pkg
$ tar -xf perf-<ver>.tar -C /tmp
$ cd /tmp/perf<ver>
$ make -C tools/perf
you get this warning message:
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `kernelversion'. Stop.
Fix it by saving the perf version in the tar file and using that for the

This new COMM infrastructure provides two features:
1) It keeps track of all comms lifecycle for a given thread. This way we
can associate a timeframe to any thread COMM, as long as
PERF_SAMPLE_TIME samples are joined to COMM and fork events.
As a result we should have more precise COMM sorted hists with seperated
entries for pre and post exec time after a fork.
2) It also makes sure that a given COMM string is not duplicated but
rather shared among the threads that refer to it. This way the threads
COMM can be compared against pointer values from the sort
infrastructure.

We are using the Python scripting interface in perf to extract kernel
events relevant for performance analysis of HPC codes. We noticed that
the "perf script" call allocates a significant amount of memory (in the
order of several 100 MiB) during it's run, e.g. 125 MiB for a 25 MiB
input file:
$> perf record -o perf.data -a -R -g fp \
-e power:cpu_frequency -e sched:sched_switch \
-e sched:sched_migrate_task -e sched:sched_process_exit \
-e sched:sched_process_fork -e sched:sched_process_exec \
-e cycles -m 4096 --freq 4000
$> /usr/bin/time perf script -i perf.data -s dummy_script.py
0.84user 0.13system 0:01.92elapsed 51%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata
125532maxresident)k
73072inputs+0outputs (57major+33086minor)pagefaults 0swaps
Upon further investigation using the valgrind massif tool, we noticed
that Python objects that are created in trace-event-python.c via
PyString_FromString*() (and their Integer and Long counterparts) are
never free'd.
The reason for this seem to be missing Py_DECREF calls on the objects
that are returned by these functions and stored in the Python
dictionaries. The Python dictionaries do not steal references (as
opposed to Python tuples and lists) but instead add their own reference.
Hence, the reference that is returned by these object creation functions
is never released and the memory is leaked. (see [1,2])
The attached patch fixes this by wrapping all relevant calls to
PyDict_SetItemString() and decrementing the reference counter
immediately after the Python function call.
This reduces the allocated memory to a reasonable amount:
$> /usr/bin/time perf script -i perf.data -s dummy_script.py
0.73user 0.05system 0:00.79elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata
49132maxresident)k
0inputs+0outputs (0major+14045minor)pagefaults 0swaps
For comparison, with a 120 MiB input file the memory consumption
reported by time drops from almost 600 MiB to 146 MiB.
The patch has been tested using Linux 3.8.2 with Python 2.7.4 and Linux
3.11.6 with Python 2.7.5.
Please let me know if you need any further information.

At this point, --fentry (mcount function entry) option for gcc fuzzes
the debuginfo variable locations by skipping the mcount instruction
offset (on x86, this is a 5 byte call instruction).
This makes variable searching fail at the entry of functions which
are mcount'ed.
e.g.)
Available variables at vfs_read
@<vfs_read+0>
(No matched variables)
This patch adds additional location search at the function entry point
to solve this issue, which tries to find the earliest address for the
variable location.
Note that this only works with function parameters (formal parameters)
because any local variables should not exist on the function entry
address (those are not initialized yet).
With this patch, perf probe shows correct parameters if possible;
# perf probe --vars vfs_read
Available variables at vfs_read
@<vfs_read+0>
char* buf
loff_t* pos
size_t count
struct file* file

Support "$vars" meta argument syntax for tracing all local variables at

Now you can trace all available local variables (including function

# perf probe --add foo $vars
This automatically finds all local variables at foo() and adds it as

scan all the stack data and merge them accordingly.
This patch adds a new --max-stack option to perf-top to limit the depth

perf-top to finish its processing. It reduces the amount of information

When callgraph data was included in the perf data file, it may take a
long time to scan all those data and merge them together especially if
the stored callchains are long and the perf data file itself is large,
like a Gbyte or so.
The callchain stack is currently limited to PERF_MAX_STACK_DEPTH (127).
This is a large value. Usually the callgraph data that developers are
most interested in are the first few levels, the rests are usually not
looked at.
This patch adds a new --max-stack option to perf-report to limit the
depth of callchain stack data to look at to reduce the time it takes for
perf-report to finish its processing. It trades the presence of trailing
stack information with faster speed.
The following table shows the elapsed time of doing perf-report on a
perf.data file of size 985,531,828 bytes.

Linus reported that sometimes 'perf report -s symbol' exits without any
message on TUI. David and Jiri found that it's because it failed to add
a hist entry due to an invalid symbol length.
It turns out that sorting by symbol (address) was broken since it only
compares symbol addresses. The symbol address is a relative address
within a dso thus just checking its address can result in merging
unrelated symbols together. Fix it by checking dso before comparing
symbol address.

Current collapse stage has a scalability problem which can be reproduced
easily with a parallel kernel build.
This is because it needs to traverse every children of callchains
linearly during the collapse/merge stage.
Converting it to a rbtree reduced the overhead significantly.
On my 400MB perf.data file which recorded with make -j32 kernel build:
$ time perf --no-pager report --stdio > /dev/null
before:
real 6m22.073s

sys 0m0.706s
after:
real 0m20.780s
user 0m19.962s
sys 0m0.689s
During the perf report the overhead on append_chain_children went down
from 96.69% to 18.16%:
- 18.16% perf perf [.] append_chain_children

For now, we disable the extended MMAP record support (MMAP2).
We have identified cases where it would not report the correct mapping
information, clone(VM_CLONE) but with separate pids. We will revisit
the support once we find a solution for this case.
The patch changes the kernel to return EINVAL if attr->mmap2 is set. The
patch also modifies the perf tool to use regular PERF_RECORD_MMAP for
synthetic events and it also prevents the tool from requesting
attr->mmap2 mode because the kernel would reject it.
The support will be revisited once the kenrel interface is updated.
In V2, we reduce the patch to the strict minimum.
In V3, we avoid calling perf_event_open() with mmap2 set because we know
it will fail and require fallback retry.

In function filename__read_debuglink(), while the ELF file is opend and
mmapped in elf_begin(), but if this file is considered to not be usable
during the following code, we will goto the close(fd) directly. The
elf_end() is skipped. So, the mmaped ELF file cannot be munmapped. The
mmapped areas exist during the life of perf.
This is a memory leak. This patch fixed this bug.

kcore can be used to view the running kernel object code. However,
kcore changes as modules are loaded and unloaded, and when the kernel
decides to modify its own code. Consequently it is useful to create a
copy of kcore at a particular time. Unlike vmlinux, kcore is not unique
for a given build-id. And in addition, the kallsyms and modules files
are also needed. The tool therefore creates a directory:
~/.debug/[kernel.kcore]/<build-id>/<YYYYmmddHHMMSShh>
which contains: kcore, kallsyms and modules.
Note that the copied kcore contains only code sections. See the
kcore_copy() function for how that is determined.
The tool will not make additional copies of kcore if there is already
one with the same modules at the same addresses.
Currently, perf tools will not look for kcore in the cache. That is
addressed in another patch.

The objdump tool fails to annotate module symbols when looking at kcore.
Workaround this by extracting object code from kcore and putting it in a
temporary file for objdump to use instead.
The temporary file is created to look like kcore but contains only the
function being disassembled.

Before using kcore we need to check that modules are in memory at the
same addresses that they were when data was recorded.
This is done because, while we could remap symbols to different
addresses, the object code linkages would still be different which would
provide an erroneous view of the object code.
